His Influence Chapter 23
The couple exchanged glances and Lara turned back to him and replied. “Ok, since you already know the reason we're here. I'd like to know what happened.”“Why did you give us a deal and call it off almost immediately without any reason? Is it that you were not sure at first or you made a mistake?”“We didn't make any mistakes." The man replied in a serious tone and Lara could sense arrogance in his tone.What was that supposed to mean?“I don't understand. Were you guys joking with us or what? We're both big time celebrities and you shouldn't mess with us like that." Kyle's voice was already going high but Lara patted him on the laps, calming him down.The man, on the other hand, only stared at Kyle as the latter was raising his voice and bragging about their accomplishments.Well, that was not his problem. He was only following the orders given to him by his Boss.After Kyle was done talking, the man gave them an intense glare before sighing. “Actually, it's my boss who asked me to c

After a moment of silence, Kyle replied to her. “Let's leave this place at once. We'll go to my Manager's office and find out if he was able to get projects for us with the other movie producers.”“This is just a little setback in our lives and I'm sure we'll get past this stage." Lara nodded her head in agreement and Kyle started the car and drove off.Meanwhile, still in the woods, Prince was busy with his work as an errand guy at the movie location. He started that job because he knew that Lara and Kyle would show at the place to find out why they were cut off from Royal productions.While he was running around and making sure that things were going well, he noticed the way Avery and Molly were staring at him.Avery and Molly were still working with his production because he didn't have any reason to cut off all deals with them.It was right that they've flirted with him in the past when he was still married to Lara.Prince was Lara's personal assistant for some time. And while th
His Influence Chapter 1
"Have you seen a guy this handsome? Look over there and see that beauty. That guy is the cutest I've ever met and he's got the body." Molly was lusting after Prince and biting her lower lip seductively. She patted Avery's hand who immediately agreed with her."Yeah, you're right. Even though he's just Lara's PA, I'm going to jump him. I don't care about his status because he sure looks like one who would give me the satisfaction I want. I can just pay him off afterwards." Avery was one to hit the nail on the head and never minces words. Being the one with more action, she made her move and went over to the place where the couple sat with Molly following behind. Pulling out a chair, Avery settled in it and placed her script by the side, her eyes fixated on Prince. The man, on the other hand, was uncomfortable with the gaze on him. Turning his face, he directed his gaze elsewhere. They were at a movie location and he was just doing his job as Lara's PA. Yeah, Lara was his wife and a bi
His Influence Chapter 2
Turning around, Prince's gaze met with a man who looked familiar. He was still puzzled as he could not make a thing out of what was happening. It's got to be a dream. Yeah, he was surely dreaming.With furrowed brows, Prince turned around to gaze at Lara. He suddenly started laughing to everyone's astonishment."It's a prank, is it not? There's no way that this is true. We are husband and wife so the baby should belong to us." Prince was still in doubt when Kyle walked over and held Lara by the waist. Angrily, he rushed over to attack the man but Lovelyn stood in his way."I dare you to lay a finger on him."Prince ignored his mother in-law and continued towards the man whose hands were still wrapped around his wife's waist. However, Lovelyn ran to his front and gave him a resounding slap. "What do you think you're going to do? You think I'd let you attack my worthy and prospective son in law."Stopping in his tracks, Prince lifted his hand and massaged his face that had turned red f
His Influence Chapter 3
Still in shock, Prince tilted his head and stared at the paper on his hands. He still could not believe his eyes. If it wasn't happening before him and to him, he would have thought that it was a movie. It was like one of those things he sees on the screens.He lifted his face and his gaze fell on the man who was going to take his place. Wait! He had already taken his place. As soon as he appended his signature on the paper, everything would be over. His eight month marriage would be gone. All the sacrifices he had made for Lara and his in-laws. Sometimes he wondered what it would have been if his father in law was alive. Would he have acted like the women and treated him like sh*t because he was a pauper?His mind wandered back at the time when he met Lara. She sounded like a lady of great virtues. One that kept refusing to sleep with producers just to get a movie role. Alas, not all that glitters is gold. Prince hit his forehead hard with his left hand as he paced around the place.
His Influence Chapter 4
Kyle took the opportunity to taunt him more. He stopped nursing his wounds and held Lara by the waist. Pulling her closer to his body, he planted a kiss at her lips. "Honey, we're going to have the media itching for more of the juicy news because our names would be on everyone's lips. You will be the envy of those colleagues of yours who have been chasing after me but could not get closer. They'll all watch me place the trophy in your hands. Hahaha.""Ofcourse, you're the best my dear Kyle and my daughter deserves the best. Not some dumb pauper who has wasted eight months of her life. I'm glad that it's over now." Lovelyn chipped in.Crystal had been without a word, she just sat at the couch watching all the drama. She suddenly stood up from her chair and walked towards the door. Opening it, she said. "It's the least I can do for my ex brother-in-law. Don't say I'm not being considerate because I just helped you open the door."They all began to laugh at Crystal's little drama.Princ
His Influence Chapter 5
Prince slid into the car, settling at the passenger's seat. Letting out a deep sigh, he lifted himself and checked out his face in the mirror. He had a black eye and his forehead was swollen. If it weren't for his shirt that shielded his bare body, he would have had more bruises. However, that didn't stop his body from aching him. Kyle had struck him a few blows at his stomach and chest. He'd admit that the guy was quite tough because the fight lingered on with no winner. If Lovelyn hadn't ended it by slapping him on the face, they would have fought for a long time until there was no energy left for them to continue.George stood outside for a while as he pondered on what Prince just said. 'What does he mean "my shattered heart". Did his wife cheat on him?' George kept thinking hard.He lifted his gaze and it fell on the women who were still stunned. The man that they were gossiping about was a rich dude. That didn't look like someone who was pretending. Clearly he has a luxury car a
His Influence Chapter 6

They had gotten a tip about certain celebrities that would be holding their engagement ceremony at the hotel that afternoon and had run to catch the real gist. Every news station wanted to carry it as no one would like to be left behind. This was something that would trend for a very long time. The best part was that it involved two big shot celebrities.Every other celebrity that was associated with the two would also be attending the ceremony.

Prince caught up with them and blocked the way, stopping them from going into the car.He was there to gloat and they knew it.Kyle tried to force the door open, but Prince held tightly onto it, his eyes fixed on Kyle in a mocking smile.After a few seconds, he turned his gaze to look at Lara with a wicked smirk on his face.Furious, Lara glared back at him and was about to charge but Prince stopped her.“Oh, do you want to hit me? I dare you." He said and shot each of them a cold look.He left their car door and stared at his hands while saying casually. “I bet you guys have not heard about Karma." He shook his head a few times and continued. “Who would have thought that the great Lara Norman and Kyle Sherman would be discarded like trash. Wow! It's really unbelievable.”"If I wasn't present to witness the incident, I might not have believed it. How pathetic." “Get out of my sight now, Prince. I don't want to do something I'll regret." Lara fired at him with bloodshot eyes. She wa

“I'm listening, Miss Norman. What do you have to say?” Mr. Clark jolted her out of her thoughts.With pursed lips, Lara sighed before she began to speak.“Mr. Clark. I'd like to know why Royal productions want to have nothing to do with us any longer. What wrong have we done?" She shook her head vigorously and continued. "I'm asking because I don't remember doing anything wrong to offend anyone. I'm good with everyone and try to mind my business which is to deliver my best on set.”“And the same goes with my fiance here." Mr. Clark was silent for a while. He stared at the couple for a while before sighing deeply.“I um.. I have no answers to your questions. The only person who can give you the answers you seek is the boss.”"You know that I'm just an assistant. I don't have much to say when the boss has spoken. I'm only his employee.”“Then set up a meeting with us and your Boss. We'd like to know what the problem is. What wrong have we done to him?” Lara replied and Kyle agreed wit

Prince could not help but laugh at her.For someone whose career was at the verge of collapsing, she sure has some nerves.Lara wants to put him off his job when hers was slipping away from her.Prince turned his face around and returned his gaze back to Lara before asking.“Are you talking to me?" “No, I'm talking to that tree over there." Lara pointed to a tall tree behind Prince but the latter did not budge.He only smiled, raised both of his shoulders up and replied nonchalantly. "Ok, keep talking to it then. I'm sure it'll give you a response soon.”Prince began to walk away but Lara hurriedly blocked his path again. “Are you making a fool of me? Tell me what you're doing here, Prince." Lara's interference was getting Prince pissed off but he chose to keep calm."Look, Prince. You have to leave this place at once. Like my fiance just told you, you're not allowed to work here.” Kyle added.Prince looked at the couple before him and smiled for a while before saying to them. “You

Kyle ignored her and started the car. When he drove out of Royal productions studio, he turned briefly to Lara and inquired.“Where are we going?" "We're going to the movie location in the woods. Maybe we'd have the chance to talk to Mr. Clark and hear what he has to say.”Mr. Clark is one of the assistant producers and they have worked together all this time.There were two assistant producers and the other one was not on set with them.Most of the crew members of Royal productions know their Boss personally. However, they've been asked not to say anything about him or post his pictures online.Lara gave him the address of the movie location and they drove off.While on their way, Kyle felt bad about what he had earlier said to her and decided to apologize.“Lara, umm. I'm sorry about how I spoke to you earlier. I should not have said all those things to you." “And, I should not have left you to fight with the receptionist, especially because you're pregnant. We can't afford to los
Chapter 18
The receptionist could not swallow the physical abuse from Lara so she had to retaliate.With her hands balled into fists, Asha bit her lips and punched Lara really hard and the duo ended up fighting each other.Kyle just stood aside and watched the fight. He didn't even attempt to separate the girls.He believed that Asha, the receptionist deserved to be beaten up for calling Lara a crazy person.The fight lingered on and when Kyle saw that Lara was being defeated, he decided to separate them.“That's enough, Lara. Just leave her alone and save your reputation. I know that you can beat her. However, it's not worth it because you have a lot to lose." Kyle was trying to make Lara feel better with the words.He knew that if he left them to continue fighting, Lara would be severely dealt with by Asha.The receptionist looked fragile but was a lion in the fight.She almost tore Lara's hair apart if not for the timely intervention of Kyle.As he pulled his fiance out of the fight, Kyle loo

Prince laughed at her for a while before replying to her. "Please, give me some credits. I was never begging you for money when we were married, was I?" “Being your P.A, I earned all the money you paid me because I worked for it. Moreover, you were the one who asked me to quit my job at the restaurant to work for you. It was not like I've ever begged you for money.”Prince sighed and continued. “Well, that's not the reason I called you at this time." “So why have you called me?" “I just wanted to check up on you. I needed to be sure that you haven't ended up in the hospital. I mean, with all the news about you guys in the media, someone in your shoes might end up in the hospital.”“Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you. As you can see and hear, I'm hale and hearty and won't be ending up in the hospital anytime soon if that's what you're expecting." “If you've called to gloat, then think again because I'm not going to give you any reason to laugh at me." Lara angrily blurted out.“And
Chapter 16
It was already late when Lara and Kyle finally decided to go home. They had to be sure that the media group was no longer in sight before they came out.Lara called Derrick, her driver, to come and pick her up.While they waited for her driver, Lara sat with Kyle in his car and the duo were deep in their thoughts.Kyle was wondering what was really going on. After an awkward moment of silence between the couple, he turned to Lara and said to her. “Honey, I think you should stay away from going through social media for now. I'm sure you'd be more pissed at the comments. I don't want you to get yourself walked up because of what happened today. And you know how people can reach a conclusion without knowing what was going on." “First thing tomorrow morning, I'll come over to your place to pick you up. We'll be going to Royal productions to find out what's going on." “And we could also go to Evergreen World corporation to ask them a few questions.”If it weren't for the media, the coup
